|
| Function |
Potassium channel subunit. Modulates channel activity by shifting the threshold and the half-maximal activation to more negative values.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Has to be associated with KCNB1 or possibly another partner to get inserted in the plasma membrane. Remains intracellular in the absence of KCNB1.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Detected in lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, spleen, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary and colon. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12060745}.
